Guest guest Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 You can try going to google and look for "9 paths of devotion". When I did that I found a website that speaks in detail about Baba's description of these paths. The summary is given below: What is declared in the Bhagavatha as the 9 paths of devotion, has been explained by Swami as the 9 steps leading higher and higher towards God. They are: 1. Sravanam – Listening to the glories of the Lord 2. Kirthanam – Singing His glories 3. Vishnusmaranam – Chanting His name and remembering Him 4. Padasevanam – Serving His lotus feet 5. Archanam – Worshipping Him 6. Vandanam – Paying obeisance to Him 7. Dasyam – Considering oneself His servant 8. Sakhyam – Considering Him as the best friend 9.
